Thirty Six

Hey, Peanut Butter and Jelly.
Here's the next chapter, get ready.

😁😁😁
----------------------

Hours before the twins met.

Arka moved his feet fast toward the White Mountain. To the castle of King Aiyaz.

When he entered the mountain for the first time, he couldn't believe that the people of Edur could make a castle inside the ice mountain.
But after lived there for almost a year, Arka already got used to it.

When he got closer to the main gate, Arka heard someone from inside yelled.
"Open the gate!!!"

And slowly the gate opened.
Without slowing down, Arka slipped inside the door and he continued to walk deeper.

Inside the mountain, the first thing welcomed Arka was a big hall. There're no fire needed to light the castle. Somehow the ice and the floor of the mountain created their own white dim light and it was enough to make the castle bright.

Arka just removed snow from his hair and shoulders when suddenly an annoying voice ruined his day.

"Welcome, Arka! How's the walk?"

"Cena." Arka murmured lowly as he greeted the woman.

Cena pouted her lips playfully. "That's not a good way to welcome your future wife, Arka."

Arka rolled his eyes. "I don't remember I have a promise to marry you, Cena. Have I proposed you?" He said in purely sarcasm.

But Arka forgot it was Cena. Not the other women. Cena, unfortunately, had no shame.
Instead feeling rejected of what he said, she smiled widely, showing her pearl white teeth. She flipped her white hair to one shoulder and shrugged.
"Well, you will. One day." She said. "Oh, by the way, King Aiyaz is looking for you." She added with a wink from her grey eyes.

Arka nodded stiffly and he spun on his heels, quickly made a distance from Cena. The woman was nightmare and Arka refused involve any further with her beside for the job.

He climbed the stairs to the King's hall and on his way, he met Cena's twins sister, Lena. Just like Cena, Lena had a pair of grey eyes. But not white hair, she had long black hair above her head.
Their personalities were different too. They presented the real meaning of black and white perfectly. If Arka wanted to propose a girl, his first choice would be Lena. But unluckily for him, Lena never showed any interests toward him.

"Arka. Finally you're here. King Aiyaz is looking for you." Lena said gently but firm.

Arka rolled his eyes again. "I know. Your lovely sister just told me. That's why I'm here."

Lena smiled a bit. She knew about her sister's obsession for him. "Well, she teased you again, didn't she??"

Arka didn't have to answer. His face did it for him.

Lena made a chuckle then she tilted her head toward the King's hall.
"Hurry up! He's waiting for his dearest guard."

"I'm not his dearest guard, Lena."

Another smile from her. "Of course. See you later, Arka. I'll tell your regards to my sister." She said while passed him away.

Arka groaned in annoyance. "Don't you dare, Lena!!!!" He shouted.

But the woman ignored him and disappeared in the corner.

Arka made a deep groan one more time, imagining he had to handle Cena and her attitude.
Before his anger controlled his body, Arka entered the King's hall and he saw a view that he usually seen when King Aiyaz met his son, Prince Zuriel.
